Description:
Morning Sun Books. Hardcover. New. From its own beginning, and well past the date of its demise, the Rutland Railroad has been and endless source of fascination for enthusiasts of New England railroading. Although gone for some forty years now, how could a relatively short (407 mile long) now-abandoned line that had 60% of its trackage in tiny Vermont, attract so much attention? With a flurry of rebuilding the Rutland Railroad survived the Great Flood of 1927, then receivership, and the first labor strike in over 100 years of its operation in 1953. It reorganized, buying new diesel locomotives and steel boxcars on time payment plans from local banks, it gambled that scrap steel sold from abandoned trackage and steam locomotives would help pay for new equipment, it handily divested itself of horrendous losses in Passenger Service while averting action of the Vermont Public Service Board, and more.

Title: Rutland in Color Author: Jordan, Philip R. Publisher: Morning Sun Books, Tuscon, Arizona, 2003 ISBN: 9781582481036 Condition: VERY GOOD SHIPS FROM ALBERTA Reader Comment: Great book. Considering how long the Rutland has been gone, it is amazing that were so many color slides and photos available. Obviously the slant was on the portion of the RUT from Burlington and south, and especially from Rutland and south. A shame that there weren't more photos of the northern and western part of the RR, but nonetheless, this book makes a great addition to my collection.
